Jammu & Kashmir: Heaven reels under nature's threat

Jammu and Kashmir consists of three regions: Jammu, the Kashmir valley and Ladakh. Srinagar is the summer capital, and Jammu is the winter capital. While the Kashmir valley is famous for its beautiful mountainous landscape, Jammu's numerous shrines attract tens of thousands of Hindu pilgrims every year. Ladakh, also known as "Little Tibet", is renowned for its remote mountain beauty and Buddhist culture.

At the swearing-in ceremony of the Jammu and Kashmir government, Deputy Chief Minister and BJP leader Nirmal Singh told NDTV that it is the “beauty of democracy” that the son of a former guard to Maharaja Hari Singh is now part of the state government. In an exclusive interview, Mr Singh said that for now, Article 370 is a closed issue as the mandate does not allow the party to pursue it. In future, he said, if the party gets a mandate, it will decide how to proceed further on the issue.

Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday (November 25) registered a record 71.28 percent turnout in the first phase of incident-free Assembly elections when people ignored boycott calls by separatists and cold conditions to cast their votes in 15 constituencies. In J&K, a 61.23 per cent voter turnout was recorded in the 2008 Assembly polls for these 15 seats--6 in Jammu division, 5 in Kashmir Valley and four in Ladakh. Today's polling was spread over seven districts. The overall turnout in the state in the Assembly elections in 1996 and 2012 was 53.92 per cent and 43.69 per cent respectively. "Polling has gone off absolutely peaceful without any incident. It was 100 per cent flawless polls and there was not a single incident which vitiates poll process," Deputy Election Commissioner Vinod Zutshi told reporters in Delhi. Dealing a serious blow to separatist politics, thousands of voters had lined up before polling stations. Nearly 10.52 lakh voters were eligible to vote. Separatist groups like all the factions of Hurriyat Conference and JKLF have called for a boycott of the polls and a general strike as well in the state which has been affected by militancy for over 25 years. A total of 123 candidates including seven ministers were in the fray with the ruling coalition partners National Conference and Congress and the Opposition People's Democratic Party(PDP) and BJP fighting for the spoils.
In five Kashmir Valley constituencies, two in Ganderbal district recorded 68 per cent turnout -- an increase of 13 per cent from 2008 assembly polls -- while three in Bandipora district recorded 70.30 per cent, registering an increase of 11 per cent. Sonawari consituency in the Kashmir Valley recorded a turnout as high as 80.10 percent. In six seats of Jammu division, two constituencies in Doda district recorded a turn out of 76 per cent while it was 70 per cent each for the four seats in Kishtwar and Ramban districts. While there was increase of eight per cent in Doda district and nearly four per cent in Ramban district, Kishtwar district recorded a drop of over three per cent. The four constituencies of Ladakh region, which normally witnesses high voter turnout, marked a decrease in number of voters exercising their franchise. In two constituencies of Leh district, the turn out was 57 per cent, down from 61.88 per cent in 2008 assembly polls and substantially down from 68.23 per cent registered during the Lok Sabha polls earlier this year. In Kargil district, 59 per cent voters cast their votes against 72.90 per cent in 2008 elections. Early morning chill and fog failed to dampen the spirits of the voters who had assembled at the polling stations an hour before the scheduled start of voting. The voting time had to be extended in several polling stations to allow those voters, who were already inside the polling station premises, to cast their votes.
In a debate moderated by TIMES NOW's Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami, panelists -- Tanvir Sadiq, Spokesperson, NC & Political Advisor to Omar Abdullah; Rashneek Kher, Founder Member, Roots in Kashmir; GVL Narasimha Rao, National Spokesperson & Member Electoral Reforms, BJP; Pirzada Mohd Amin Shah, Secretary, Muslim Personal Law Board, J&K; Rameez Makhdoomi, Journalist & Political Commentator and Hasim Qureshi, Chairman, J&K Democratic Liberation Party -- discuss whether 72.3% voter turnout recorded in first phase of J&K assembly polls. Is it a slap in the face of anti democracy extremists?
